Before we get into Beckett's decision, let me just say that I'm kinda sorry that the 'pretend-you're-a-spy-vacation'Â victim was folded into an episode with the resolution of the Beckett-Castle-Demming love triangle. That was a fun case that I believe Castle could have had even more fun with if given those extra minutes to play. I guess we were supposed to see the parallel between the case and Beckett's dilemma: people get hurt when others don't have the nerve to say what they truly feel (a married man was gunned down by his mistresses' husband during the spy game). But I feel like that's a cool enough case that you devote an entire hour to it in Season 3. (I mean, I Googled to see if companies like 'Spy Ventures'Â exist. I came up empty-handed. Anyone find anything?)
